About SA Agri Farm Online

Imagine driving a tractor without any gauges: no tacheometer, thermometer, oil indicator, fuel level, etc. Turn on the engine, push the accelerator, and there it goes. You are driving - maybe not far, maybe not for long. Sooner or later the tractor will end up in the mechanic’s shop.

A large irrigation system is a complex machine, stretched over a large area. Nevertheless, on many farms, this is exactly what people do: operating these systems with almost no feedback to tell them about the performance.

Competitive markets in horticulture and agriculture encourage growers to seek more control on the plants' performance and increase uniformity throughout. The ability to "feed" the plants with the exact amount of water and nutrients at the right moment has proven to be essential for harvest quality, quantity and timing. "Well tuned" irrigation systems can be an ultimate tool for the plants' control and uniformity management.

Willem Amoraal, a mechanical and electronic engineer, has developed and commercialized the well known Gulf irrigation computer in the late 1980’s. It is still the most reliable tool in irrigation today.

Since the late 1990’s, Cornelis Amoraal has filled senior management positions in various agricultural businesses as business developer and grain trader, and more recently also in the irrigation industry.
